[In the event there no offspring son or daughter to inherit the farm or file a claim to the land then the king could take possession from 1420. They themselves determined that when the farm was without owners, so shall this abandoned farm fall to the nearest neighboring farm.] Would rather be : It even happened that no offspring (heir) later could take possession. We can show this from a Royal decree from 1420. It states that when the farm is abandoned like that, it shall belong to the nearest farm. Stein N. Wisted
